Not much.. and that's kind of the point. It's almost exactly like WASD except with access to more keys, tab capslock and shift can now be assigned to other things (or the same things and the new keys used for something else) and Q, A, Z, can be used instead.

Also on some keyboards it makes hitting the ALT key with the pinky easier making yet another useful key.

With ESDF vs. WASD one isn't better than the other really, just if you like WASD and find yourself short on keys, ESDF is something to try and might be a good solution.

I guess the advantage of WASD is that it's easier to find the right keys again with your left hand, almost instantly from any position. Also the keyboard seems slightly more stable pressing wasd especially if you press hard and move the keyboard a bit.

Aways ensure you are maintaining a high FPS rate in QL. Otherwise you can be at a big disadvantage. To find out your current fps rate, use the command: "set cg_drawfps "1"".
